weekend drive

This weekend Mikel and I decided to go on a drive on Saturday. The weather was beautiful and we wanted to take full advantage of the block break!

We headed towards Virginia City which is about an hour away from Dillon. It's an old ghost town that has about 130 residents and is a tourist attraction with lots of little shops, bed and breakfasts, and restaurants during the summer. The city also hosts the Brewery Follies which we've heard is absolutely hilarious so hopefully we can check that out this summer. 

Right before Virginia City is Nevada City which is also an old mining town with some cool old buildings and lots of history.

(Notice all the beautiful blue skies in the middle of winter. One of many reasons Montana is better than Michigan!) 














We can't wait to go back this summer when everything is open and check it out!
